Projectile Motion Photo


This picture is of a swimming backstroke start. It represents projectile motion because of the parabola shape. In this case the parabola is opening down. For a backstroke start the arched back with the feet following up on the whole body's motion creates the parabola. Right at the beginning the first push the velocity 9.8m/s and continues until the peak of the start where the velocity it Om/s because she is not going up or down. Then eventually starts going down with the velocity again at 9.8m/s.
